'Man of Steel': See Warby Parker's Clark Kent-inspired glasses

Man-of-Steel

Mere mortals will never have Superman’s super-vision, but the power of 20/20 sight is now available thanks to Warby Parker’s new line of Clark Kent-inspired specs.

The eyewear company teamed up with Warner Bros. on the Warby Parker X Man of Steel capsule collection, two exclusive frame styles inspired by the Superman franchise.

Both the “Chamberlain” and “Percey” styles retail for $95 — prescription lenses included — with $15 from each sale going to 826NYC, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping students improve their writing skills. As is standard practice for the company, for every pair of glasses purchased, they’ll donate a pair to a person in need.

At the Billboard Music Awards, Taylor Swift had a message for her critics: “Haters Gonna Hate.”

To mark her first performance of “22″ on television, Swift wore a ”Haters Gonna Hate” unicorn graphic tee. Though it is rooted in hip hop, Swift made the catchphrase her own — the words are in spelled out in glitter inside a rainbow-colored cloud that hovers over an image of the mythical creature.

At the beginning of season 2 of Fox’s New Girl, costume designer Deb McGuire told EW that Jess (Zooey Deschanel) would be dressing sexier, thanks in part to her blossoming relationship with Nick (Jake Johnson).
